Concussion cestus

Description

The concussive cestus is based on the same technology as the sonic rifle. It is a bulky gauntlet with a powerful sonic emitter set in its palm, directly hooked up to the wielder‘s alpha energy reactor. When the meta-armour‘s wearer hits their target with their open palm, they send a sonic wave forward, knocking enemies out of the way while crushing bones and internal organs. Knights versed in the ways of martial arts use precise manoeuvres to slay their foes in breathtaking, deadly displays of skill. More brutish Knights just slap things until they stay down.
